History of the PGA Championship

The PGA Championship has been challenging the best golfers in the world since 1916, and over the years, it has delivered some of the most memorable moments in golf history. From Gene Sarazen’s win at just twenty years old in 1922 to the record-breaking low rounds of 63 by multiple players.

Now, in 2025, the PGA of America brings the event back to Quail Hollow Club, a course known for its closing stretch, nicknamed the Green Mile. With tight fairways, deep bunkers, and slick greens, it’s a true test of skill and mental toughness.
